    Reviving this thread- Does anyone play any of the WW2 war games? Which brands do you prefer for WW2 models? Scales? If i were to give a proper go of this, could someone with some experience point me in the direction of necessary starter kit? ( I have brushes and some crap paints, sprue cutters and stanley knives, something like a "Paint pack" which has a lot of generic colours i.e German infantry colours or something like that?)

    Back home to Glasgow this morning:

    Do any of you lads have any knowledge RE old school metal sewing machines? Been looking into getting into Tactical Sewing, spotted an old machine and antique sewing machine table at a bootsale. Thought to myself I'll nab that and save £300. Problem is, whilst I can tell it is up to the job, it is lacking a needle and any markings for me to identify it by. The bloke in the sewing shop says he needs to know which machine it is to sell me the right needle, are they proprietary? If I posted up a pic would anyone be able to ID it?

    Anyone else like Root beer or Dr pepper? I'm literally the only person I know who likes either.

      Love both but root beer is my all time fave! I sometimes buy crates onf 30 cans in off ebay!

      Dr Pepper isn't strictly a root beer. It IS the Devils piss though.

       

      It's flammable too, so next time someone asks what's the worst that can happen just say "third degree burns".

      I like Dr Pepper but not root beer :)

    this may seem silly, but how have you put the bb's in? I think they need to be pushed in properly, to seat in the "magazine" like loading a TM revolver.

    Eye protection (Goggles or mask), Combat boots and Knee pads in that order. Gloves help with blisters but if I had to pick just three things and turn up in any old clothes I want those, not only for safety but comfort also. I'm a more confident diving about with ankle support or taking a knee when I've got a lot of weight on my back if I'm wearing the proper stuff. EDIT: Ninja'd by Mack. Didn't see your post mate.

    From what I've seen in threads when researching force recon , he looks Marsoc'ish to me. They often share threads and I don't really pay attention to anyone not in Marpat as a result . He could be a CCT? I think Mack did a similar load out but my memory is fuzzy. Could always be an airsofter! That said on my phone I can't see whether his arm patch is the medical logo or a bull. If it's the former he may be a pj?

    Ah when you put it that way I guess... Best get that m4 spring changed so I can sort my ukara and get a nice ak74m! Probably have a load of questions for you soon Ian !
  10. AirsoftTed
    Grr, Ian. Between you and the "Russian military airsoft loads outs UK" FB page I'm finding it increasingly difficult not to start a Russian load out. The worrying fact that I'm about 4/5 pouches away from a "finished" USMC FR load out do not make it any easier!

    Oil based pomades are the devil incarnate. 6 shampoo washes, 2 washing up liquid washes and even a go with shower gel and it still hasn't come out of my hair. Not exagerating when they say "long hold"

      For a cheaper alternative try adding a tablespoon of olive oil to a a palm full of fairy, and just enough water to make it into a lather. That dax works amazingly well. Remember to condition afterwards.

    Don't know if it's just my eyes but I think Zeroone may have just cocked up and Photoshopped the trigger off by accident. I can't see one lol.

    I know what you mean (TWA). I think a good compromise would be to built a MOUT style "kill house" out of plywood on a bit of land similar to the village they have. With some tweaking and careful planning the village could be very very good. The only problem I've found is a lot of the firing points in the buildings are for the most part useless. There is a big building towards the end where the caravan is which can be quite good for CQB but because all the other buildings are single rooms it's just a matter of running in and seeing who shoots who first lol.

    It was a combination of everything, was actually sad to complete it. Unity just doesn't compare at all in my mind. I really bought into the story and character of ACBF. Anyway- you can't stop the funk!

    Personally if I were to mount a sight on a sight, I'd put it on top of it so it was at least in line with what I'm shooting at. That way you're just compensating up/down not left/right too?

    Need to change the spring in my m4 to bring it down to sub 350. (I'd like around 340). Any brands to avoid or favour? and or places to buy from?

    1. Sitting Duck

      Element M105 just hits over 350 I have found in a few guns.

      re-doing AOE will normally bring it just under. Got some SHS M100's but not tested them yet but think they are about same fps

      cheers SD. First time cracking open a GB, anything else I should do? I've heard of replacing shims with metal ones or something?

    Does anyone who does USMC kit know of any places/ebay pages to get good deals on FSBE pouches? Happy new year to you all too!

    1. jcheeseright

      jcheeseright

      legitkit on ebay quite regularly gets FSBE lots in, they're not 'cheap' per se, but it's about as good a price as you're likely to get.

      Cheers James. The prices of the items aren't a problem its postage that's a killer as always lol! I''ve a friend stateside I could get to send me them I suppose!

    I'm going to treat my self to a bottle of Tullermore Dew for tonight. Will report back in the morning or afternoon depending how good it is
  24. AirsoftTed
    Nicely done Chock! Refreshing to see something functional, that serves your needs and doesn't need a million and one pouches and pointless other stuff! Most comfortable game I played was in a similar vest by Viper!
  25. AirsoftTed
    Any of you Gent's tried Tullamore dew? It's taken my eye, wondering if its any good. Noticed I have similar taste to most of you so this should be a good place to ask!
